T1

Two airlines, one small terminal

T1 at Oswaldo Guevara Mujica Airport handles all scheduled traffic, with Avior Airlines and Conviasa running the show. The building is compact, ground-level, and easy to cover end to end in under five minutes on foot. Domestic routes dominate here, so expect mostly Venezuelan regional flights rather than long-haul departures.

Layout and check-in basics

Check-in counters for Avior and Conviasa sit right inside the main T1 entrance, with paper boarding passes still common. Security sits just beyond the counters, serving all gates from a single checkpoint. With the small flight volume at AGV, lines often move quickly, but a 60-minute airport arrival is still a smart buffer for the usual document checks.

Security and boarding setup

The security area in T1 uses metal detectors and X-ray scanners, with manual bag checks more frequent than at big hubs. Gates are in one small concourse, and boarding for Avior and Conviasa flights often starts 30–40 minutes before departure. Most operations use walk-out boarding via ground level doors, so be ready for a short walk on the tarmac in heat or rain.

Food and drink options (or lack of)

No catalogued restaurants show up for T1 at AGV, and recent listings do not confirm any branded chains. You may find a basic kiosk or small stand selling drinks and packaged snacks near the waiting area, but do not count on hot meals or special diets. Plan to eat in Acarigua-Araure city before heading to the airport, or bring sealed snacks for the gate area.

Shops and services inside T1

There are no documented shops in T1, and no confirmed duty-free or full retail spaces in public sources. Expect only minimal services: seating by the gates, basic restrooms, and possibly a small information desk or local ticket office linked to Avior or Conviasa. ATMs and currency exchange are not reliably listed, so bring bolívar or your preferred payment method sorted before arrival.

Lounges and seating

No lounges are listed for T1 at Oswaldo Guevara Mujica Airport, and no major program like Priority Pass shows this airport in its directory. Seating near the gates is usually in simple rows, and power outlets may be limited or shared. If you need to work, assume you will be using your own hotspot and battery pack at a standard terminal seat, not in a dedicated business area.

Ground transport and arrivals

Arrivals area in T1 feeds directly to the small landside hall, where you exit to local roads serving Acarigua and Araure. Public data does not show any formal rail link or large bus terminal at AGV, so most travelers rely on taxis, private cars, or pre-arranged transfers. Because schedules for local transport can be irregular, line up your ride before landing, especially on evening flights.

One practical tip

Plan your day around the flight schedule: flightradar24 data shows limited daily movements at AGV, so a cancellation or significant delay can leave you waiting hours in a terminal with no confirmed full-service restaurant or lounge. Charge devices in town, bring snacks and a power bank, and treat T1 as a functional boarding point rather than a place to pass long chunks of time.
